Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0250011A2] A microcomputer comprising memory (19, 20, 21) and processor (12) is arranged to execute a plurality of concurrent processes and share its time between them. The microcomputer includes means (35) for indicating a current process as well as a collection of processes awaiting execution. Processes may be added to the collection. Next process indicating means is provided to indicate the next process to be executed. Synchronisation means (10, 50) is provided to synchronise communication between concurrent processes (32, 33, 34) on the same microcomputer or interconnected microcomputers. The synchronisation means (10,50) may schedule a process by adding it to the collection or terminating execution of the current process.
